    Thank you so much for the picture, it helped immensely. Here is a theoretical question for you. On a small 1/4 mile track with a 7-10 degrees of banking, which car would be more successful. Car A) 52% Left side weight, 2300 pounds total Car B) 55% Left side weight, 2450 pounds total...

    Perhaps my question wasn't clear enough, or maybe because I haven't I looked at the software I am confused, but what I am having trouble understanding is where on the pivot do I pick the point to put in. The arm is angled like I drew up in paint. That is in a two dimensional plane...

    Hey mike! Finishing up my race car build, found a friend with chassis software, now wondering where to measure my upper control arm pivot points so i can determine roll center. The upper control arms on my car are angled so at what point do I pick to plug into my software? Dead center?

    What would be the upper "ball joint" point? The pivot point between pieces 6 and 5 referencing my previous picture? Does piece #6 move?

    Just read all 31 pages in this multi-year old thread. Signed up for a physics forum with no real interest in physics outside of making my race car faster... And to say thank you for all your time in effort. How would you go about benchmark this front suspension?
